Purchased from a fellow Agoner last year. Beautiful rosewood finish. Excellent condition. Exterior in very good shape.
I have loved this integrated so much I'm moving up to the Grand Integrated. There are many reviews of this amp but this just came out:
In The Absolute Sounds' 2012 High-End Audio Buyers Guide, they said:
"Peachtree Audio's versatile Nova is a multi-purpose component that offers a surprisingly high level of performance at a sensible price. Specifically, the Nova combines the functions of a 24/96khz upsampling DAC with USB, S/PDIF, and TOSLINK inputs, a hybrid tube/solid state 80Wpc integrated amplifier with digital and analog inputs, and a class A tube powered headphone amp(you can also use the Nova as a hybrid DAC/preamp). The core sound of the Nova is focused and revealing, with taut, but perhaps lightly weighted bass. Overall we preferred the sound of the Nova with its 6922-based tube circuit engaged, which helps give the unit welcome touches of warmth and harmonic richness. Predictably, the Nova makes a great amp/DAC on which to base starter high-end audio systems."
I tried the Nova in every iteration as described above and it was excellent in every case. Relative to "lightly weighted bass", I didn't share that feeling, I thought the bass was excellent. My feeling is that this amp can also be the end of searching for the "right" component. I got rid of expensive tube amps and pre-amp and didn't miss them.
The amp comes with a ElectroHarmmonix 6922 which sounds excellent but I had read that the so called russian NOS "super tube", as it's been called, 6H23 was magical, so that is what's in the amp now. I will include both of those tubes, both have very low hours, with an addtional 6H23 tube that is brand new.

I've tried to upload my images but they keep getting delete. I will email pics at your request but please be fairly serious about an offer.
